We are pleased to announce a significant milestone for Edoardo Vassallo<\/strong>,<\/a> partner and founder of VPB Studio Legale Associato<\/strong><\/a>: his recent appointment to the Panel of Arbitrators of the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre<\/em> (HKIAC) and, just weeks later, to that of the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board<\/em> (KCAB International).<\/p>\n

Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre<\/h2>\n

HKIAC<\/a> is one of the world\u2019s leading arbitral institutions and has historically served as a primary reference point for the resolution of international commercial disputes in the Asia-Pacific region and globally. Over the past 40 years, HKIAC has administered more than 13,000 cases involving parties from over 100 jurisdictions across Asia and beyond. Approximately 80\u201390% of the cases administered by HKIAC are international in nature.<\/p>\n

According to the Global Arbitration Review<\/em>\u2019s prestigious Guide to Regional Arbitration<\/em> (2025), HKIAC is included in the \u201cWhite List<\/em>\u201d of the world\u2019s most reputable arbitral institutions. In 2023, HKIAC registered 281 new arbitrations, with an average case value of approximately USD 60 million, nearly double that of the previous year.<\/p>\n

Korean Commercial Arbitration Board<\/h2>\n

KCAB International<\/em><\/a>, the international division of the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board<\/em>, has administered approximately 7,000 arbitration proceedings and 15,000 conciliations throughout its history, establishing itself as a leading centre for the alternative resolution of international disputes. It plays an increasingly prominent role in the management of cross-border disputes across the Asian region and beyond.<\/p>\n

The Global Arbitration Review<\/em>\u2019s Guide to Regional Arbitration<\/em> lists KCAB International<\/em> among the institutions deserving of particular attention, highlighting an average proceeding duration of just 200 days \u2014 an efficiency benchmark that KCAB is committed to maintaining regardless of case complexity. KCAB has established an International Arbitration Committee<\/em> composed of prominent figures in the field. Furthermore, South Korea, a civil law jurisdiction, has been described as the potential \u201cSwitzerland of Northeast Asia<\/em>,\u201d supported by a strong pool of internationally-minded lawyers who are now leading figures in the world\u2019s principal arbitral organisations.<\/p>\n

\n

Edoardo\u2019s appointment to these leading Asian institutions recognises his more than twenty years of experience in domestic and international arbitration and alternative dispute resolution<\/em>, and is part of VPB\u2019s strategic focus<\/em> on Far East markets, where the firm maintains an office in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

Congratulations to Edoardo, whose appointments form part of the firm\u2019s broader vision, which looks to Asian markets with confidence, and which finds in this recognition a source of great pride and satisfaction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
